Crafty Art Market 2 @ Jaya One

I was over at Jaya One for the Crafty Art Market yesterday and it was great fun! One thing I've learned is that you can never really guess which of your product is going to sell better... haha.... Different crowd, different wants & needs, I guess. But I'm slowly learning what type of products I have to create to pull in more crowd! :)

Hope to have newer products to showcase in the next craft market happening in 2 weeks time over at Lex, Empire Gallery on the 5th March :)

my humble display :)

My wire-bound journals & my mum's handmade bloom badges!

Top Row (R) : mosaic love... mosaic art! :)

Bottom Row : Postcards!

It was a fun day hanging out with crafty people! I hope you enjoyed the photos and do join us for the next craft market! I've got more ideas and more products to share with you! :) 

As for now, if you see anything you like, do just drop me an email at angelicquirk@gmail.com

More photos available over at my Facebook page too (just click on the link)

Hiatus

Was on hiatus for the last two weeks from my blog.... not that I stopped creating. I still was... busy busy busy creating but just too lazy busy to update the blog.... terrible, right? LOL... yes, I know. Sometimes I feel that this is more a full-time job than it pretends not to be :P

I'm sharing this card that I made many weeks ago... why? erm, cos I don't think I have shared it and the ones I am going to update here, I wanna do that over the course of the days.... so, here.... my little teapot :D

Code : AO0144

Hope you all had a great Christmas! Here's to a great new year!! woo hoo~~~

Some things....

... that I've been working on. I haven't participated in challenges for quite a while now but of course, I still have my Cardabilities 'duties' to 'perform... hehe.. 

In the course of Mr. Mojo escaping from my creativity bank and has not seem to want to be found, I've been making some gift tags and note cards :)

What do you think? If you like it, you can find them on my Etsy store! :)

Quirky

Thank you Butterflies.....

I love Cardabilities time of the month, don't you? They have one of the nicest sketches for cardmakers and scrapbookers alike! :)

And here's my take on their latest sketch.... Sketch #16 already! :) You can always go over to Cardabilites and have your hand on any of the previous sketches... Just go to the previous month's blog posts :)

Code : AO0142

Hope you like this card too :) Freehand cut the 'landscape' and the tree is actually a branch from one of PTI's sets... haha... I don't have any sets with trees so I had to improvise :)


Quirky

God is good :)

Sorry I have been away from my blog for some time again.... sigh... I seem to have this yo-yo blogging effect :P Been feeling under the weather recently too. Had the fever and chills couple of days back and then now, the flu is still running full speed ahead! :(  My poor nose is like a leaky tap... sigh

Sharing yet another card I made weeks ago... nothing new that I've done in the recent days. Gosh, I really need to make something! :P

Code : AO0137

Well, I did make some cards but they were orders from a friend... thank you for your order (if you happen to come by and read this!). Am gonna start with another order. God IS good... He supplies, one way or another! :)


Quirky

come back, Mr. Mojo

Another card I made sometime back.... haha... I think I haven't made a card in 2 weeks. Oh boy, one of the longest stretches of Mr. Mojo leaving me. I think Mr. Mojo went for a holiday without telling me... how sad... :P

Just a simple card today. Love the pop of colours :)

Code : AO0136

Hope that you'll all have a great day! :) I definitely need a Mojo and inspiration boost! One crafty friend gave me a challenge to help me get my mojo back.. am going to attempt that later :)

Cardabilities Sketch #14

P/s : Happy Halloween ya! It's not a big celebration over here in Malaysia but I'm sure everyone else is having lotsa fun! :P


It's technically still the 30th here as I'm typing this but I guess by the time it's posted it should have entered the 31st... drats... LOL.... I've been pretty busy lately and I guess it slipped my mind that I have to write a Cardabilities post today! silly, forgetful me >.<


And to top it off, there was a member event at a LSS and I was there for most of the afternoon. Managed to meet up with Shirl before that and it was great catching up with her! :) 


Here's my take on Sketch #14 over at Cardabilities! It's yet another fun sketch and I hope you will all join in the fun! :)

Code : AO140

Just a smidgen of fussy cutting on this card but I'm loving it! :) Am so glad I bought the Hambly paper with the bird cages too... can't seem to find them anymore...

Friends to the end

Gosh.... mojo-less and having the writer's block both at the same time... hahaha... potent combination of death! :P

Today is a good & bad day for me... more good than bad, though I wish it was a good-good day with very itsy-bitsy bad in it instead of the one I had to face. Managed to meet up with my friend cum business partner and then catch up with my camera-enthusiast friend :) Wish I had more time to spend with them both, though.

But then early in the morning, one of my clients 'forgot' we had a prior arrangement to meet up... sigh... The world doesn't revolve around him alone so it's ok. Anyway, he was apologetic and said we'll meet another day. Well, things happen and when they do, it's not always for the worst. Maybe I'm not meant to meet up with him today :) And for whatever reasons, no use to get too worked up. 

God always has a higher way so I have to trust Him for whatever happens :)

Here's my card to share with you today.... something simple and elegant (whenever there's pearls, I feel that it's more elegant :P)

Code : AO0135

What do you think?


Quirky

a wish....

A wish... that's all I'm asking for...

Here's an inked up chandelier from Inkadinkado... :) I have yet again been neglecting ALL my other stamp sets and have only been playing with PTI's sets... waiting for my WM and Wplus9 to arrive so that I can have more variety... :P

Code : AO0134

I actually love the bright combination of colours. Very cheery, don't you think? and we all need something to brighten up our days sometimes, don't we? :)

Love layering stamps too... did you notice the text on top of the polka dots? loving it! :)

Hope you girls are having a great day, where ever you are! :)

Tea Break?

Inspired by Card Pattern's Sketch 86, I came up with this card! Inked up my Tea for Two teapot again. Love the contrast of colours on this one. I initially wanted to make it a really simple card with no background stamping and just the teapot at the corner but then I saw the sketch and decided to based it on the sketch instead :)

Code : AO0144

Hope you like this card! :)


Quirky

Sip & Relax

I'm inspired by both Wplus9's Colour Cue {9} Challenge and 2S4Y Kazan's Sketch #64. Love the soft colours in the challenge which serves as a little reminder for Breast Cancer Awareness as well. I used to work for a pharmaceutical company and my colleague who's in charge of Herceptin (for Her-2 type breast cancer) would give us some pink ribbons to attach on our clothes or bag when we were out visiting doctors. 

Here's my take on both the colour cue challenge and the sketch :)

Code : AO0143

Can you see another set that I rarely use? lol.... Love this teapot set too but, again, I don't use it enough.... I didn't buy as many sets from PTI this year, don't think I would be eligible for the free anniversary set next year :P But then again, I am not too pleased with the way they handle customer's concerns. 


Remember when I asked about feedback on postal to the US? It was sent to PTI. Some of the epoxy stickers were damaged and they said I could send it back for a replacements. So I did, with registered mail... last October! And they said they never received it. I gave them the tracking number and they said it only shows the item reaching US but not to their doorstep so they cannot send me a replacement. I am speechless.... why would I spend money to send back the items then? and it was USD7 for both the epoxy stickers. If I knew they were going to shrug responsibilities so easily, I wouldn't have sent it back... just use the ones that are not damaged. Feels like I'm at the total losing end in this :(



Quirky

Just a note

I try to alternate posting my Christmas cards creations and cards for other occasions... I dread to think that you girls will get bored if you keep seeing the same theme :P Am not making any Halloween cards cos it's not a big celebration in Malaysia and there's no one for me to send them to! :) So it's just Christmas and everything else for now :)

Code : AO0133

Took out my Vintage Picnic set and started inking them again. It's quite a fun set but I don't use it enough... seriously. Sometimes I just take them out and look at them, erm, then put it back... LOL....

Well, today's post is a rather short one... nothing's running through my head right now so nothing to ramble on about. Let's see if I am 'talkative' tomorrow :P

Believe

I want to thank God for a wonderful week and I'm believing in more wonderful weeks in the future. You know, I'm actually writing this in advance... It's Monday now but I'm claiming God's goodness, blessings and favour for a wonderful week ahead and come Friday, I want to give Him thanks for all that has taken place :)

It takes a lot to be strong but even more to be courageous, isn't it? and it takes a lot of perseverance and self-motivation to get a lot of things going. As I've mentioned earlier, Procrastination has been trying to engage in a close friendship with me but I've been trying to shake him off. I don't mind him as a casual friend but not as a close buddy... no no no... I prefer the company of Motivation, Hardwork and Perseverance and I have to make effort to be best buddies with those 3 chums instead! :)

Wish me luck ya?! :P

Code : AO0132

Here's my card. I want to prepare to thank Him for his goodness.... :)

Just a short note :)

Just a short note today..... been hanging out with Procrastination quite often lately which is not proving to be very fruitful. There's so many plans, thoughts, things I want to put into action but Procrastination has been clinging on to me like glue!

*le sigh*

Anyway, am sharing a card here now, I've still been quite productive making cards though... but not as productive as I hope I would be. Well, sometimes you just can't force the creative juice out... and that I understand... la di da :P

This card is based on 2S4Y's sketch last week. I completed it but forgot to take a picture of it and by the time that was done, a new sketch is out! haha.... anyways, the lil' mouse just wants to say 'hola' :)

Code : AO0131

Have a great day, peeps! :)

Just saying hello

Code : AO0128

Quirky

hello there!

Code : AO0120

Remember the pink card I shared last week? I love it so much, I actually made a similar one in blue! :) I love the flower stamps from PTI... they are always so versatile! :) I can use it to decorate cardstock, fussy-cut them and pop them up as embellishment for the card... and the list goes on :)

I hope you love this card as much as me! :)


Quirky

blooming~~

Sharing another card that I made some time ago.... Like I said, I made quite a few cards during my one week leave before I started my new job a month ago... and because I have not really had the time to share a lot of the cards I made, I still have some to show you :P

Of course, I'm going to make time to craft for a few weekly sketches too, else I will go bonkers! I need my crafting to keep me sane!

Code : AO0123

I think I have to be more diligent in keeping myself sane... here's to going home at 7pm latest and having a bit of work-life balance of sorts! :P Hope it materializes :Da

hedgehog love

p/s : This is my second posting... please scroll down to give the other posting some love :)

Another card I made for one of my favourite weekly sketch blogs :D I can't help but find time during the weekends to make this! Like I mentioned in my previous post, I have to keep my sanity in check! :P

This card is based on Card Pattern's Sketch 80. Wow... 80 sketches already? Can't believe it...

Code : AO0129

Was having a hard time peeling the hedgehog off from the plastic sheet... that goes to show how long I've been neglecting my stamp sets... sobs....

Will attempt to spend more time on crafting very soon!! :)

On a Sunday

p/s : THANK YOU dearies for the birthday wishes!!! Am so blessed to have you girls in my life! :) I love how cardmaking has brought us to know each other and I truly love each & everyone of you!

Made this last night but I didn't have time to take a picture of it. Haven't got a lot of time to do what I love, which is blogging, crafting & blurfing (blog-surfing... lol... a term I picked up from dear ~Amy~).

I hope my entry for 2S4Y's Sketch 60 isn't too late.... :P Well, I think it's technically still Sunday over in the States, so I should be fine :)

Code : AO0127

Hope you like the card... I thought it's just very sweet :) The hedgehog blowing heart bubbles and all :)

I'm turning *0 this year! :P

Morning people :) Today is an important day to me.... I am celebrating my birthday today :) But, haha.... you can just *believe* me when I say I turn *25* this year :P Well, I told my hubby that I am going to remain 25 for another 5 more years before I decide to 'up' my age a little again... hahahahaha...

Anyhoo... my brother decided to fly off today... on my birthday... of all days... he'll be away to where Elvis used to stay for a couple of years to further his studies... sobs... am going to miss him. Will be spending time with him and my parents... Will update some pics later! :)
